https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2016-April/102983.html reported a "Broken pipe" problem with portupgrade on 11.0-CURRENT on amd64.

FYI: I had the/a "Broken pipe" portupgrade problem on powerpc64 under 11.0-CURRENT -r298518 on 2016-Apr-23 updating from /usr/ports -r413230 to -r413919. If this might be the same I do not know. The relevant part of the script log is:

ruby was still lang/ruby21 at the time.

I used portmaster instead and everything worked fine.
